TOKYO, Japan — Japan Airlines said its systems were up and running again after a cyberattack on Thursday caused delays to domestic and international flights. 'We have identified the cause and scope of the malfunction, and the system has been restored,' said the airline, Japan's second biggest after All Nippon Airways (ANA). The 'large data attack' did not leak any customer information and safety was unaffected, Japan Airlines (JAL) said in a post on social media platform X.

Ticket sales for domestic and international flights departing on Thursday were suspended during the incident but have now resumed, JAL said.

Problems with the carrier's baggage check-in system caused delays at several Japanese airports, local media said. JAL shares fell as much as 2.5 percent in morning trade after the news emerged, before recovering. Its stocks were down 0.2 percent in the afternoon.
